Iowa buck for my brother

evart_mi · 12-21-2005, 05:58 PM

My brother and I went to western Iowa this year for their first gun season. We had a great time and saw several nice bucks. The best was this one that my brother got opening afternoon. I had a shot at the beastie but unfortunately he was on property that we didn't have permission to hunt on. This main frame 9 had 4 stickers on the bases for 13 points total. 154 6/8 gross score but the really neat thing was this buck went 300# live weight and he was only 4 1/2 years old. We saw at least 4 bucks in the 120 to 130 range and probably 225# to 250#. Really a great time . . . and all on state land. Already got reservations for next year.
